My Third Christmas Card of 2023

'Dylisheus 3', by Don Van Vliet more commonly known
as Captain Beefheart (1941-2010), under which name he,
with the support of several different line-ups of The Magic Band
  released twelve fine avant-garde blues albums for nine
different record labels between 1967 and 1982
and tour Europe, the UK, and the USA, in support of said albums.
Painting scored over music with him not least because
it does not require a record label, does not require touring,
and it very much does it require musicians who were apt
to rebel when asked to play music and adopt pseudonyms
that seemed plain weird beyond all comprehension.
